    I need you to know how much this series is helping me finish my last incomplete class so I can graduate from music school haha! I have never been fond of opera or the traditions that is upholds today but I have definitely gained an appreciation for its larger collective story that propelled us forward musically. Thanks so much!

    I too adore this series and share in the befuddlement as to the paucity of views. That said, I really think Berlioz deserves a mention, and not simply b/c he is a quintessential romantic. I am listening to Benvenuto Cellini (1838) and am hearing traces of bel canto and grand opera, to which I think perhaps Berlioz can be seen as a bridge. More, I find myself wondering had he dedicated himself to writing opera rather than turning them out once a decade, might he have been to French opera what Verdi and Wagner were to their respective nations?

      Hi Peter - I'm really sorry, I only had brief bullet points for most of it but perhaps I should write something!

      @@johnandrews3924 Yes, it would be helpful also for those who doesn't understand very well English, but in general a so comprehensive material is useful, so if you do it, I would love to know about it. Thank you.
